United joins American in route and job slashing

Almost by the same percentage as American, United says it will cut domestic flights about 20 percent by the end of this year.

Delta has also, previously, announced route cuts.

But, neither United nor Delta is following American on charging for a second checked bag, let alone a first one.

My guess is that some other airlines look at a more token $10 charge for a second bag at some point in the future and that nobody follows American on charging for the first checked bag.
